Bringing Henry Home: No place like home.

Sunday, February 12, 2012

No place like home.

We are being discharged. It was touch and go for a while...

But God is good.

Henry beat croup AGAIN...

And Pneumonia...

And RSV...

What if he was still in the orphanage?

What if he was so sick in the hospital we met him in rather than in Children's Hospital, a world class medical institution here in the US?

God you are good...

Even in sickness...

Your mercies are never ending!!
